What is Platelet Rich Plasma PRP?

PRP treatment involves a simple blood draw. Your blood is then spun through a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets. Concentrated platelets contain hundreds of proteins (growth factors) which may be as much as 10x richer than usual. This protein rich platelet plasma is then injected into the injured area of the body using ultrasound guidance.

What is Stem Cell Therapy?

Stem Cell Therapy offered by Dr. Kurtz uses ultrasound guidance to inject stem cells, harvested from your own bone marrow, into areas of the body that have been damaged due to age, injury, or disease.

Stem Cell Therapy is effective because your body's own stem cells have the ability to develop into healthy new cells through a process known as differentiation. Differentiation is a process that takes place after the stem cells are extracted, wherein they become highly specialized in their function. Specialization includes becoming a repair system, whereby healthy stem cells replace damaged, diseased and injured cells, thus promoting healing.
